"Pitbull" A real book by a real trader. He may have done some bragging but it seemed to me that he paid his dues and earned those "braggin' rights. Unlike a lot of the bozo's that are published as so-called experts, Schwartz acknowledges his losses (often substantial to the point of being...

Until a couple of unfortunate SPX trades, I was doing ok. Some things to keep in mind are that options allow you to pursue either a long or short philosophy. There can be a lot of contracts to sort through so I now try to simplify things by generally going out beyond the front month strike and...

It will be slower than DSL but it will work. I'm 33,000 cable feet from my serving CO so I'm stuck with 56K for the time being.

Become acquainted with technical analysis or, at the very least, get comfortable with reading the chart of a stock or index in various timeframes ( intraday, daily, weekly...) to know whether that stock or index is at a high, low, trending or consolidating.

Greendog You are a Dog but you are my kind of Dog :-)

Range It is my understanding that HAL will be the lead contractor with regard to repair of any Iraqi oil facilities. In turn, HAL has selected WEL to be the lead contractor for putting out any oil well fires. If it were not for this "funny business" being perpetrated by 4 so-called "Texas...

Boots & Coots Updates Notice of Default HOUSTON, Feb 18, 2003 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Boots & Coots International Well Control, Inc. (WEL) announced today its execution of a Discretional Advance Agreement pursuant to its Loan Agreement with Checkpoint Business, Inc...

With all the concern over industrial espionage, to say nothing of cyberterrorism, I think that at the very least, it will be a big niche.

I entered the IT industry in 1986 and have found myself without work for the last 2 years. As a result I have gotten much more interesting in trading. However, if I were to get back into the swing of things, I would definitely look into the security aspect of IT. I think that security will be...

Looks like the combination of Q4 GDP of 0.7% and AOL losing almost 100 billion dollars did us in today.

Wally Thanks for the link to trin info. I've been looking for something like this for a while. Even asked the bozo's at Datek if they had a source for realtime trin info. Of course they were clueless. CNBC displays the trin along with their other market stats 3 times an hour but this is mucho...

How about paying too much for an option on open. If I had waited instead of letting my greed instinct overpower my fear instinct, I would have made a few bucks. Instead, even though the contract closed up for the day, I sold at a loss because I did not want to hold a loser over the weekend...

We recently bought 2 Dell 2350's, complete with monitor for $599 each, with no shipping charge. This was a late 2002 special that we probably spent an hour looking for on their website. We just kept looking in various places until we found the best buy that met our needs. If one has any computer...

In my quest to figure out just where the heck this market is going next, I continue to be amazed by the so-called pros (ie:money managers, fed govs, government officials, talking heads) regarding their proclamations regarding how the economy is getting better. Just tell that to the 25000 to...

Speaking of techs, one of the many things I do not understand about this market is how the pros continue to talk about "Tech" leading the market out of the the bear. It seems obvious to me that before tech companies can start leading anywhere but down, the bricks and mortar companies that depend...

Scared...and with good reason. This bounce does not seem unreasonable to me but what I will be looking for is an opportunity to play the short side as we approach the 200 day M A. IMHO, You are not crazy!

A round lot is any block of stock traded that is evenly divisible by 100. A block of 50 or 250 shares would be an odd lot. Hope this helps.

I get the same result from buying puts on indexes.

TickerWatcher Thanks for sharing!!!! Louie
